The dynamic development of digital culture has led to the formation of processes and phenomena that significantly affect both the functioning of the social system and the socialization of an individual.The purpose of the work is to reveal the features of the influence of digital culture on the socialization of a modern person.Objectives: to characterize the phenomenon of digital culture; outline the features of socialization of a person in the conditions of digital culture.Methodology. The methodological basis of the article includes: a systematic method that allows identifying the main elements of the space of digital culture, which determine the specifics of the socialization of a person; analysis and synthesis to reveal the essence and specifics of socialization in the space of digital culture.Results. In modern socio-cultural conditions, the space of digital culture is defined as a specific factor of socialization, which led to the selection and establishment of a new concept of "digital socialization", which is considered to be a defining component of the socialization process of a person.Conclusions. The space of digital culture creates more favorable conditions for the self-realization of the individual, since in it the results of the subject's creative activity are accepted by others as an acceptance of his individuality and the maximum activity of the individual is ensured when determining the trajectory of his development.At the same time, actual or potentially negative results of transferring the process of socialization to the Internet space are highlighted. This, first of all, is far from being an equivalent replacement for real virtual-simulation communication; strengthening of social anomie; the dominance of fragmented and intuitive knowledge, as well as extreme value relativism in the process of innovative transformations in the sphere of socialization, etc.
